India captain Virat Kohli wished the Shubman Gill on Instagram.

“Happy Birthday Shubman Gill. Have a great year ahead, wrote Virat Kohli on his Instagram story.”

Kolkata Knight Riders teammate Dinesh Karthik also wished him.

I think a break was really important. Sometimes such things happen that you don’t expect. I think we are very much in contention to finish in the Top 4. Whichever team qualifies, you never know what will happen. So, hopefully, we will win the remaining matches, make sure we qualify. And then we’ll see where we go from there,” Gill told KKR’s official website.

If we keep doing what we have done in the past years and just enjoy our game. Then it’s not possible that we won’t do well or qualify,” he added.
